The Chevrolet Corvette C6 (2005-2013) is a beloved sports car known for its performance and innovation. Its electrical system is protected by various fuses and relays that ensure proper function of critical systems.

The fuse box in the Corvette C6 is located in both the engine compartment and the passenger compartment. The engine compartment fuse box manages high-demand systems such as the engine control module, cooling fans, and headlights, while the passenger compartment fuse box covers interior systems like the infotainment, power windows, and interior lighting. Fuses protect these components by interrupting power flow in the event of an overload or short circuit, preventing damage.

Relays in the C6 function as electrical switches that control high-current components such as the fuel pump, cooling system, and starter motor. These relays allow the vehicle to control these systems using lower-power circuits. Regular inspection of both the fuses and relays is necessary to maintain the Corvette’s high performance and to avoid electrical issues that could affect vital systems or comfort features.

WARNING

  • Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amperage rating.
  • A fuse with a too-high amperage could damage the electrical part and cause a fire.
  • On no account should fuses be repaired (e.g. patched up with tin foil or wire) as this may cause serious damage elsewhere in the electrical circuit or cause a fire.
  • If a fuse blows repeatedly, do not keep replacing it. Instead, have the cause for the repeated short circuit or overload tracked and fixed.
  • Terminal and harness assignments for individual connectors will vary depending on vehicle equipment level, model, and market.
